Community Research

  • Creative, culturally grounded research that reveals what surveys can’t.
    We use photography, audio, zines, and participatory theatre to bring real voices forward and surface insights that drive meaningful change.

  • Co-Design & Collaboration Consultancy
  • When you need residents, grassroots leaders, and policymakers in the same room — aligned and creating solutions together — we make it happen.
    DBN™ builds bridges, deepens trust, and supports co-designed ideas that work in real life.

  • Photography & Videography
  • Authentic, story-driven visuals that capture your impact and bring community narratives to life.
    Ideal for campaigns, reporting, and stakeholder engagement.

The Challenge:

Repackaging poverty: regeneration in areas like Newham and Hackney Wick often prices out locals, like Alexis, a Stratford researcher studying barriers to prosperity in the Prosperity in East London 2021-2031 Study.

The Opportunity

DBN empowers communities as equal partners, valuing lived experience as expertise. Our citizen-led approach delivers inclusive, resilient urban solutions.

Why Invest?:

  • Unique Insights: Community research reveals what top-down models miss.

  • Scalable Impact: Adaptable for global urban challenges.

  • Proven Results: Our study fosters thriving, equitable neighborhoods.
